Welcome to Password Mafia, a game for 15 players.



This is a relatively role-lite game with an unconventional mechanic. All non-town players in this game (Scum and any 3P) will be given a small, personal list of words at the beginning of each day. Successfully using these words in their posts will buff their abilities at night. Town obviously won't know what the words are, but you are aware of this mechanic. The words will be unusual (no common words like the, at, and, is, etc) but not completely outrageous (like callipygian or mimsy or pinguid). Think words like "conceptual" or "instrumentation" or "donated" which if cleverly used, could be thrown into a post without anyone noticing, but it's a risk. The words will get more difficult as the game goes on.

Standard Rules

  • Days will be approximately 48-72 hours, Nights will be 24 hours. (Weekends count as 24 hours). Day 1 will be 24-36 hours.
  • Execution will be plurality
  • Thread will be closed at night
  • No fake day actions
  • No posting after hammer
  • No posting mod PMs
  • No editing posts
  • No outside communication unless your role says you're allowed
  • Results will be given in the form of "you successfully <blank> your target"
  • Once the game starts I won't answer any questions in thread. PM me if you have questions.

Anti-Lurker Rules:

  • If you don't make at least 10 posts in a game day, you will be permanently ON NOTICE for the rest of the game. Tut tut!
  • If you are already ON NOTICE and do not make at least 10 posts on any subsequent game day, you will be FREELY LIGHTS OUT EXECUTABLE the next day. (Your execution will not end the day, but your flip will be posted at the end of the day!)
  • The above rules will be disregarded if hammer happens more than 24 hours before deadline or the game day lasts less than 24 hours (or otherwise based on mod judgment), and will hopefully only be in effect for the first 2-3 game days if you're all good people.

Town Wincon: You are Town and win when all threats to town have been removed.

What I'm getting out of this setup is that you and KR have a massive advantage as scum and should be sacrificed to the murdergods first

Sorry to be a mimsy, I should probably not actually be in this game but I’m here for vocabular emotional support if you need it Asiina.

I’d like to play but I’ve signed up for El Dorado and I’m alive in self-indulgent and i cannot do 3 at a time

Put me down as a tentative?

To clarify this sounds like a really cool setup but I worry about stretching myself too thin. Even my normally low quality of play is subject to getting even worse.

I was going to try to stuff all the words used as examples in the OP in as foolish sounding a way as possible, but instead I will just say count me in.

I reaffirmed my entry but the more I think about it the more I realize I probably wont be able to play in this game with a decent level of participation. I'm going to have to withdraw sorry!
